 Hello everyone, today we are going to discuss Amazon Web Service account settings. I am Venkatesh Bhingi, working as an assistant professor from Walsh and Instruct Technologies SolarPool. After going through this video, you will be able to secure your own AWS account and also able to explain the security measures needed to be considered for your AWS account safety. Now before starting how exactly to secure your AWS account, you need to understand AWS Regions and Abability Zones. So what exactly are Regions and Zones? Amazon cloud computing resources are hosted on multiple locations worldwide, that is called as AWS Regions. Each AWS region is a separate geographical area and each AWS region has multiple isolated locations known as Abability Zones. So a region can have multiple Abability Zones and Amazon RDS provides you the ability to place resources such as instances and data in multiple locations. So this is a geographical representation of regions, Abability Zones and RDS. So each AWS region can have multiple Abability Zones here I have shown and Amazon RDS, this is also one belongs to Abability Zones and these regions are separated by geographical distance. Now these are some of the AWS Regions and Abability Zones. Here you can see US East, US East, North Virginia, US West, North California, US West or Oregon, Asia Pacific Mumbai, Asia Pacific, Osaka local. So like this, these are the regions which are given by the Amazon to host your services. So some are there in China also, Germany, Frankfurt, Ireland, London, Paris, Stockholm. So these are some of the, there are some government clouds also and all these are regions are accessed by using the protocol called as the H2TPS and these are the end points of each region and this is region name. Now in order to understand the security settings of your own AWS account, you need to click on this URL, AWS Management Console, sign in to the console. The last video we have discussed how to create an account on AWS, now by using the same credential, I'll login to my AWS account. So this is my AWS Management Console. Through this portal, I can manage my AWS account ratings. First you go to this, so this is where my Abability Zone, that is region is available. The name of this is Oregon, US West and by default I have selected this US West as my region. Now you can select this, select any one of the region according to your requirement, according to the application which you want to host for a particular people. So there are different, you can see here different regions and what basis you will select the region. Also depends on what type of application you are going to host on AWS console and where your target audience is present. For example, if I want to host a site for your citizens, then it is not advisable to host your application in a region which is there in India or Asia region. You need to host that application in the US region. There are four, this US regions are available and depending upon the density of the crowd in a particular region you can select that region. The second thing, this is your account ratings. You go to my account and here you can change your account ID. Account ID you can change but you can change the password and account name. And see of course the AWS provides some free cost services but all are not free of cost. So the billing address or contact information has to be shared with AWS. And so these are some of the contact information which is available with AWS. This is also you can edit and you can change if you change your address. And you can change some configuration settings as well as security settings. If you want to do that, this is the way to do it. You can put some questions when you want to reset some password or when you forgot some password in that case. And another important feature of AWS is what IAM user. IAM user basically allows you to provide authorization to a particular application or services. Basically this feature is available or useful when you are working in a team. And when you want to give authority to a particular person based on his role. For example project manager will be having higher authority access as compared to the tester. So you will decide the role by using this IAM user and what type of access you want to provide to the application even he is developing or testing the application. So IAM user that you can decide. And there is one more feature which is given by AWS if this account is being used by public sector customer. Please provide the contact details in the field below. So like this even if it is not private, if it is public sector customers also you can share their contact details. And here you can see the communication preference through online or through postal communication that is also possible. So these are some of the basic account settings of individual AWS. Then if this is related to particular account when you are talking about an organization you can go to this. Here before that you need to create an organization. Once you click on create organization it will ask organization name and some details. After that you can provide or access the settings related to the organization. My billing, my admin dashboard. Here you can see the cost which is incurred in order to use AWS services or to host application on AWS. So there are different settings. You know speed, summary, cost explorer month, to date spent by service, bill details you can get if you click on it. So when you use some paid services you can get the bills from here. And the next is what security credentials. Now if you want to change your own AWS account password here you can change. Click here to change the password. And in order to change your password you should know your old password as well as the name or email address of your account. It will send a link to reset your password. In order to make it more secure you can use multi-factor authentication. Now basically it requires username password as well as authentication code from MFA device to access this account. So when you want to make your AWS account more secure you can use this multi-factor authentication MFA. So for this you need an electric gadget. It can be your mobile phone or it can be your TAN. And this is one more thing by which you can secure your account by using access keys. It will generate access key ideas as well as secret access key. It is like OTP that kind of thing. Then cloud front key pairs. Basically it is used to create signed URLs by using this so you can secure your account. So now there is one more feature which is available by AWS that is X509 certificate to make secure SOP protocol request to some AWS services. So it is also used to secure your AWS account. And this is what Amazon account identifiers. So right now my AWS account idea is this and canonical user idea is this. So like this you can make your AWS account more secure by clicking on my security credentials. And if you are not aware of any you know how to access or you want to ask any question or want to get the doubt clear. You can go to the support and here you can get some online resources by which you can secure your own account. Or if you have any questions you can ask here. So depending upon you know the previous history you will get some recommended questions from this. And you can read some questions through this also. So this is how you can secure your account. Now what I want you to do is pause this video and answer this question. How many regions are available for AWS? And the second question what is the name of Indian region available for AWS? The answer is right now at present there are 21 regions which are available with AWS. And Amazon also one given one region for India that is Asia specific Mumbai. And these are some of the references. Thank you. Hope you understood.
